Trivia
The first draft of the screenplay was written in 1978.

Goofs
At around 48:06, when the main character is videotaping herself, she points a gun directly at the camera from a distance of probably less than a foot. This has the unintended consequence of revealing that the pistol is an Airsoft replica of an M1911 .45 ACP with a much-smaller inner muzzle than that of the real firearm.

Quotes
[first lines]
Frank Kitchen: I killed a lot of guys. They were worthless pieces of shit, but I killed them, and you're not supposed to kill people. So what happened to me? I guess maybe in the end... it was a lot better than what I deserved. But it takes a long time to work that out. In the meantime, you just want to get get even.

an enjoyable twist

I think Michelle Rodriguez did a great job. Her attitude was that of a man, yet when she started stripping she still enticed!

The story line was interesting enough to keep watching and Sigourney did a great job with her superiority complex and cold confident statements.
